Great Grandma, Sun Dial Room


Great Grandma is from an early 1940s photo shot probably in Gillette, Wyoming. To pose in front of the car was very common at the time--it seems that all my ancestors were doing it.

Sun Dial Room comes from the increasing importance that weather, the seasons, and especially the sun plays in my life. I am more or less confined to my house, so I am always positioning myself to absorb sun rays through windows.  This card is an architectural or engineering fantasy involving a piece of furniture turning into a mobile railroad car on a circular rail, a kind of clock.
